After 6 years of no problems on our Y, I thought it was time to replace it, before things went wrong. We tested a 06 Y, but didn't like it as much as our 98. So we kept the 98. Of course, many things were soon due for replacement, like the original tires. Our 'repair shop of choice' is now our 'ex-shop of choice'. They couldn't do even simple repairs without confusion, havoc, disaster. They sold our aluminum wheels instead of mounting summer tires, couldn't get brakes right the 1st 3x, which was very comforting; spent lots a time not fixing the heating system and eventually lost a client of 20 years. 1 thing they did well was double-talk. All of which doesn't diminish our love of our Y, now on new wheels & summer tires, but our personal aaaarrrgh factor has skyrocketed.
